Our Favorite Music Of 2005

Our contributors come from all over the place – Australia, Turkey, Philippines, Britain, Canada and even the US. As the year is about to come to a close, we thought we’d ask what their favorite albums or EPs of the year were.

All the contributors got back to us. Few albums got the same vote – what we got was a diverse but beautiful mix of picks, just like the team themselves. How wonderful.
